compile via php with no root?
« on: November 01, 2005, 04:48:38 PM »
I have my PHP hosting, and I want install here amule demon, to acess it via the web. But I havent root, I only may upload via ftp, and create php pages. Php has "nobody" rights, but it could start system scripts, write and upload files, access sockets, etc. So is it possible to install amuled here, and use it?

yes, if you can bind right ports.

You should also be aware that your webhosting company (I think that's what we're talking about here, isn't it?) will definitely not be happy if they find out you're running amule and might have clauses against such use in their policies...

I think its not a big problem :) I can bind ports via php and cgi scripts, for example  I can send email via 25 port port manualy. Hosting is free, even if I banned I can register new account in 5 minutes :)
But problem is, that I can't install  wxGTK. I type  ./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-gtk2 && make (via web shell) and it says that no GTK installed. I try to dowload and install GTK, but nothing happens when i typed make (permission denied?) Also nothing happens when i tried make amuled. So I thing I must have root to use "make" But maybe it possible to do it without making, download binaries...?

set the prefix to a folder you have write permissions to...

so maybe to your home folder or something.
